3. Use CCleaner
4. Use another web browser
5. Reinstall your web browser
6. Temporarily disable your antivirus

1. Try using an integrated email client

Mailbird is so much more than a simple email client. Firstly, it’s known to support a wide range of integrated apps.

This includes both chat apps like WhatsApp and workplace apps like Slack and Trello, so Mailbird easily turns into a unique hub for communication.

On top of that, it lets you connect every single email account that you use, including Gmail, Yahoo, and other webmail clients, and get rid of all errors that bug you.

If you like the idea of an integrated email client with a customizable interface that is far superior to those you’ll find in similar options, Mailbird is perfect for you too.

Mailbird comes packed with powerful tools and has the advantage of being fully integrated with apps that you use daily.

2. Check your Internet connection

Sometimes limited/inactive Internet connection can cause the Something’s not right Gmail error problem. Hence, you need to test your connection.

In order to do so, launch your web browser, and try to access any other website (apart from Gmail).

If you are unable to access the other website on your web browser, then you may need to consider changing your Internet connection mode either modem, broadband, or Wi-Fi connection.

However, if you are able to access other websites with your current Internet connection, you can try both the Standard and Basic-HTML Gmail versions to see if anything changes.

Meanwhile, if the problem persists, you may proceed to the next step.

3. Use CCleaner

1. Download CCleaner free version or CCleaner Pro version.
2. Install and follow the prompts to complete the installation.
3. After installation, launch CCleaner, and then click on the Analyze option.
4. After CCleaner has finished scanning, click on Run Cleaner. Follow the prompts to enable CCleaner and delete the temporary files.

Some Windows users were able to fix the error problem by using CCleaner. This is a utility program that can remove temporary files, program caches, cookies, logs, repair windows registry, etc.

You can also use other third-party registry cleaners. For more information on the best registry cleaners to install, check out the best Registry Cleaners for Windows 10.

In addition, you may consider downloading Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package.

This installs runtime components of Visual C++ libraries required to run applications such as CCleaner developed with Visual C++ on a computer.

4. Use another web browser

In addition, if something’s not right Gmail error persists after trying out all the solutions we mentioned above.

Then, you might want to consider using alternative web browsers such as Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome, etc.

Alternatively, you should also consider disabling browser add-ons or extensions; this may be responsible for the error.

Meanwhile, you may also try using Google Chrome in an incognito window or Mozilla Firefox in Safe mode, and then try to access your Gmail account afterward.

However, making sure that the latest version is installed. Alternatively, you can update your web browser and then try to access Gmail after that.

6. Temporarily disable your antivirus

Sometimes multiple firewalls, antiviruses, and any other monitoring programs may prevent you from accessing Gmail.

If you still cannot fix something’s not right Gmail error after disabling and re-enabling your security software, try the next solution.

2. Type this command: Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge | Foreach Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)AppXManifest.xml” -Verbose. The command will delete and re-register the Microsoft Edge data.
